In the next few polls, let us try to isolate the issues around #EnsSARS and #EndSWAT. Do you agree that the @PoliceNG needs a specially trained and disciplined team that will tackle violent crime by dangerous criminals like armed robbers and not innocent citizens? Please vote.
Do you agree that any special police team created to tackle genuine criminals like armed robbers and kidnappers should not engage in stop and search of innocent citizens and youth, including harassing young people with phones, laptops and nice cars?
Do you agree that any special tactical team created to tackle armed robbery, kidnapping, bank robbery and kidnapping should not ordinarily be visible to the public and should only be called in when normal police cannot cope?
Do you agree that no member of what was SARS should be part of any new new tactical team to tackle dangerous crimes like armed robbery, bank heists, kidnapping and hostage situations?
Do you agree that anybody to be appointed into the tactical unit to tackle violent crimes like armed robbery should first undergo psychiatric evaluation, undergo rigorous training (including on human rights), and be properly paid as a member of an elite force?
Was this poll you’ve just kindly completed impossible for the Police to have done before announcing the creation of SWAT?
